[laughter] his optimism together with his brilliant mind, determined will, and nancy's love and support were the keys to ronald reagan's greatness as an american leader. his temperament was sunny by nature, but i believe his optimism for the future just kept growing the more he talked with people from all walks of life. president reagan liked to talk about his experiences touring ge plants around the country. he addressed maybe a quarter of a million people over those years, and he would stay after to talk with the workers. as he listened to their concerns, he came to realize how worried they were by the bureaucrats, not only within their own company, but also by bureaucratic interventions from washington, which were making their jobs more difficult. in my own travels across this country, and especially at my town halls in southern wisconsin, i've heard a lot of the same concerns. americans today are uncertain and worried about their future. many are suffering from lost jobs and shrin
